The Best Restaurant I always enjoy entering a
clean well-rounded atmosphere to eat, but in some
cases it is not always a well a rounded atmosphere
that attracts me, it is just the plain and simple
environment. I look forward to going to a place
where great home-cooked meals are served.
Sometimes eating in the places like Fridays, Ale
House, Rock aways, Apple Bees, and the Dugout
bores me. Most of these places come with a razzle
and dazzle appearance and annoying servants who
are out to make a bu...

Boston Tea Party When the Boston Tea Party
occurred on the evening of December 16, 1773, it
was the culmination of many years of bad feeling

seemed to hinge on the taxes, which Great Britain
required for the upkeep of the American colonies.
Starting in 1765, the Stamp Act was intended by
Parliament to provide the funds necessary to keep
peace between the American settlers and the Native

The Black Panthers and the Political Process
Theory "We want land, bread, housing, education,
clothing, justice, and peace." This statement was

with sincerity, the knowledge of such greats as
Mao Tse-Tung and Malcolm X, law books, and rifles,
the Black Panther Party fed the hungry, protected
the weak from racist police, and presented a new
theoretical perspective of Black political and
social activis...

Blind Society Since time and memorial, people keep
on arguing about what they believe are true. These
arguments start from differences of their beliefs.
But if one listens in all of their beliefs, they
are all brought to a point that these beliefs are
for the good of the society. Then there is a point
where the society becomes blind, Why do they not
look on their similarities rather than their
differences Then, society should look on their
similarities and learn to compromise and respect

"Blindfold " By: Diane Hoh The title of this book
is called Blindfold and it is called that because
at the end of the story before this girl is going
to be killed the other girl blindfolds her. The
author is Diane Hoh and there isn't really any
fact at all in this book about the author. The
setting takes place in a small community,
everybody knows everybody in this town. I think
the theme of this book is to never trust anyone
even if you think that they are your really good
friends. The protago...

The place where you hang your hat, where the heart
is, is a link to the past, and through its door
one walks into the future: home can be many things
t one person. To many Georgians, home is the place
where they come from, the place where the family
line can be traced from memories and keepsakes. In
"Everyday Use", Alice Walker explores the
importance of home to a family of three women in
Georgia. This story is told from the eyes of Mama,
Dee and Maggie's mother. Walker uses Mama to

Today piercing your body is becoming more and more
common. Some people still have their reservations
about putting holes in your body, but it is more
widely accepted. The younger generations want a
way to separate themselves from others and this is
their way of expression. While older generations
like parents see it as tacky and as just a fad
that will pass. Much of the same is also said
about tattoos. People in today's society that say
body art and piercing is just a fad are just quick
to shoot...

In this paper I will discuss Brazil and its
current film industry. I will elucidate its role
in the Brazilian economy, and also what part the
government deals in the industry itself. Certain
Brazilian films will be given as representations
towards my theories. Within a year of the Lumiere
brothers first experiment in Paris in 1896, the
cinematograph machine appeared in Rio de Janeiro.
Ten years later, the capital boasted 22 cinema
houses and the first Brazilian feature film, The
Stranglers by An...

Breast Cancer Treatment Only lung cancer kills
more women each year in the United States than
breast cancer does. The American Cancer Society

it. Since little is known about breast cancer,

Today I'd like to tell you about a group of people
who over the years have gained a bad reputation in
the world for simply telling the truth and trying
to fit into a society which rejects them and
rejects the truth itself. The group that I am
referring to is the Black Panthers. Most people
perceive the Black Panthers as being a type of
white hate group that despise white people and
doesn't want anything to do with them. This
perception is due mostly to the government and
what they tell you to be...

Baltimore, Md. , Feb. 6, 1895, d. Aug. 16, 1948,
was one of professional baseball's greatest
sluggers and probably the best-known player of the

Ruth took the game out of the dead-ball era, saved
it from the Black Sox scandal of 1919, and
single-handed ly revitalized the sport as the
country's national pastime. He teamed with Lou
Gehrig to form what became the greatest one-two
